MT Gambier trainer Jamie Opperman says he is eyeing the $80,000 Listed Adelaide Guineas in May with talented three-year-old Woakwine.

The impressive last-start winner will jump favourite in today's Adelaide Galvanising Handicap (1550m) on the Morphettville Parks circuit and his southeast trainer said the best was still to come as he looks towards contesting some better races during the Adelaide Carnival.

"He's improving with every race,'' Opperman said. "And I don't think we've seen the best of him just yet.''

Having just his seventh start, Woakwine is coming off an emphatic Morphettville Parks win over Saturday Affair and Akahdoo, with the latter franking the form when he was heavily backed to score easily at Gawler last week.

Despite racing in great form, Opperman said this would more than likely be the gelding's last run before being set some three-year-old feature. He said Woakwine also has the scope to get over even more ground as a four-year-old.

"I think he'll have this run and then go to the paddock before coming back for the Adelaide Guineas,'' Opperman added.

"As a four-year-old, I think he'll get over 2000m or further. He's got a lovely nature. He does everything right in his races and he's still a little bit green. He should definitely get over further in 12 months.''

Opperman is hoping rider Dom Tourneur can use the good barrier (three) today and reported the horse had progressed well since his improved last-start win.

"I think he should be handy from the good barrier, but lots of things can go wrong,'' he said. "He's trained on well (since his last win) and everything is well.''
